My ipod touch will not charge, turn on, or appear in itunes, what can i do?

My ipod touch will not charge, turn on, or appear in itunes, what can i do?
When i plug it in to my compuer it shows an empty battery with the charge symbol then after a while it shows the apple logo like it is turning on then nothing happens and it goes back to the battery.

I haven't left it overnight to charge. Is there a difference between letting it charge overnight and an hour or two with no results? The ipod does not even recognize that the cord is attatched.
I left it on my dresser in my bedroom.

  • My iPod Touch  will not completely turn off or connect to iTunes

    I disconnected my iPod and did what you are supposed to do to turn it off.  The little thing that circles round and round before it turns off all the way will not stop.  It won't turn off no matter what I do.  iTunes says it cannot connect to my iPhone (it is an iPod Touch) and that there is some kind of error.  I went through all of the troubleshooter steps including uninstalling and reinstalling iTunes.  What should I do?  Will it fix itself when the battery finally dies?

    - Have you tried resetting the iPod:
    Reset iPod touch:  Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
    button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Placing the iPod in recovery mode and then restoring the iPod via iTunes? For recovery mode see:
    iPhone and iPod touch: Unable to update or restore
    For the future. saying:
    "I went through all of the troubleshooter steps"
    Really provides us with no information since we do not know what steps you are referring to.

  • HELP!! Ipod touch will not charge or turn on

    My ipod touch will not charge or turn on. I think the battery went dead, but now it won't even turn on or charge. My computer does not even recognize that it is plugged in. I have tried to charge it on other devices and get the same result. Can anyone help?

    TRY GEORGE GUERRERO'S ANSWER FIRST.
    Plug it into the computer for about 15 minutes.
    If it starts to turn on after about 15 minutes then unplug it.
    As it is turning on hold down BOTH THE POWER AND THE HOME BUTTON on the itouch for 15 seconds, or until it flashes white or just turns back off.
    Then RELESE THE POWER BUTTON BUT STILL HOLD DOWN THE HOME BUTTON.
    Then plug it back in.
    The computer should reconise your ipod.

  • My ipod touch will not charge or register in itunes.  It keeps turning off and then showing the apple logo?

    My ipod touch will not charge or register in itunes.  It keeps turning off and then shows the apple logo.  I have tried holding down the button and plugging it in.  It will show the red battery for a second and then turn off?  Any other suggestions?

    I have checked for problems with the connections, but from what i can see with the naked eye, nothing appears abnormal. It is very strange, and very sudden. It just stopped in the middle of a charge. The apple store is my next step. I just wanted to see if anyone on here had some extremely eye-opening solution or check. thanks though!
    I'm also within warranty, so it's not a huge problem.

  • Ipod Touch will not charge or connect to Itune, keeps reverting to apple logo?

    My Ipod Touch will not charge or connect to Itunes/computer
    Ipod switchs on charge logo appears then switchs to apple logo

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iPod fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - If still not successful that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

    It still could be cable or contacts in the iPod since different contacts/conductor are used for charging and data

  • My iPod touch will not allow me to connect to the itunes store when i use the internet but it will if i connect through my laptop

    My iPod touch will not allow me to connect to the itunes store via my wireless internet but it will allow me to when connected through my lap top

  • Ipod touch will not charge or turn on.

    My daughter's ipod touch got wet. Now it will not charge. I have set it in rice. And now it has set for a least 2 months. Help????

    I've been having a problem like this, and I'm posting this for those looking for a solution like mine, but not finding the same problem and fix.
    One day, my Touch would not turn on. I plugged it into the cable connected to the usb port - the same one it always charges with.  The low/red battery icon appeared with the little lightning symbol below.  It's done that before, fine, but this time, it went straight to the apple icon. 
    I'd tried everything, but could not find a solution. No one seemed to have my problem.  Then I found this today, and it solved my problem: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808

  • IPod touch will not charge/recognise charger

    Hi,
    My iPod touch 4th generation ran out of battery charge a while ago and so it will also not turn on. When I plug it into the charger (genuine Apple charger and cord) it will not charge and no pictures or lights come on to say it is recognizing the charger or charging. I have tried with both a wall charger, and using the USB cord and my MacBook/iTunes - neither way works. I have also tried different USB cords and it doesn't make a difference.
    I am unable to 'reset' the iPod touch as there is not battery left on it. And I have blown into the charger port hole and the metal bits do not look bent.
    What to do???

    Try here:
    iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    An appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store may be in order.
